Profiles in Excellence: Trista Harris – a career of giving: In 2008, nonprofits pulled together in an amazing way," said Harris. "That habit of collaboration has continued and I was proud to see that happen."
One of those coming together instances Harris pointed to is the formation of Generation Next, a broad-based effort of several organizations working to close the achievement gap in Minnesota schools.
"Since the formation of Generation Next, there's been a much more open conversation around the issue," said Harris. "These are some of the transformative efforts we'll look back on 10 to 15 years from now and say that's where we were able to close the achievement gap and that's why Minnesota schools are some of the best in the nation."
